Average
human lifespan of a human being is 60-80 years. That depends on factors like
geographical, genetic, lifestyle and diet. 60 years lifespan is not enough as
compared to the planet which normally last a few million years. If you analyze
the time you spend on meaningless activities or do nothing can be alarming.
Among them is using your computer to perform certain tasks.
The
different parts of the computer contain different toxic materials. Those
contents may not affect the user while working on a PC, but it does cause
problems when the equipment turns waste, unused or obsolete or it goes for
recycling or discarded in bulk.
Toxic Components in Computers
The
central processing unit (CPU) in a computer contains various toxic substances and
lead is found in circuit boards. Metal plates and coverings may contain
chromium for hardening and protecting metal plates from corrosion. Motherboards
and connectors might have beryllium. Cadmium is found in chip resistors,
semi-conductors and infrared detectors, stabilizers, cables and wires. There
may be the presence of mercury and chromium in circuit boards and switches. Brominated
flame retardants are used in many components such as circuit boards and plastic
casings. Older cathode-ray tube monitors may contain several pounds of lead.
Newer LCD and flat-panel monitors contain some and copper. The lamp used to
illuminate the screen has the presence of mercury, and the coating inside the
screen may have cadmium.
Computer waste disposal Gurgaon
“Reduce,
Reuse, and Recycle-3R’s” is the main theory on which Computer waste disposal
Gurgaon survives that items such as metals, papers, plastic, and glass.
These items need to be recycled or disposed of properly because of the global
impact of going back to the landfill. Computer waste disposal Gurgaon and
recycling is a thriving industry in developed countries as well as in India
because of the precious metals like gold, copper found during the recovery
process. Gold is used in important
electronic devices because of its tarnish-free properties. It turns out to be perfect
electrical connecters. Virogreen has developed itself to be the topmost Computer
waste disposal Gurgaon with the use of cutting-age technology and
modern WEEE facility.
